Christopher Lee has died at the age of 93. He was best known for his roles as Dracula and more recently Saruman in the Lord of the Rings franchise.

Lee began his film career in 1947 but it was after he started working for Hammer in the late 1950s that he began to find fame. He made 20 films with Peter Cushing at the studio starting with The Curse of Frankenstein.

Generations have enjoyed Lee’s films and to pay tribute to the iconic actor, we’d like you to share your favourite cinematic moments. You may also have personal memories of Christopher Lee so please share those too. We will publish the most interesting responses on the Guardian site.
